Ben Bender, Lead Technician

As of 2016 Ben will have been with Newington Bicycle for 12+ years. Although he started out as a bike assembler, it didn't take long for his advanced technical abilities to become obvious - he began working as a repair mechanic and service writer almost immediately - gaining him valuable experience on almost every style bike imagineable. In the past 12 years he has attended numerous services courses and clinics including completing Shimano S-Tech, Shimano Di2 certification at Shimano's headquarters in California, Trek Service Training Courses & Campagnolo EPS certification.

He regularly instructs our weeknight Fix a Flat Clinics as well as the more in depth Park Tool School each Winter.
